Gotta agree with you Joel....

Adjuster, nobody's asking for handouts - I work for what I have, but I don't see why I should have no say in the things that directly affect me, simply because I can't 'make my money work for me' when there isn't anything left over, after paying the bills?

I firmly believe every citizen of this country should have the right to stand up and make their voice heard in the government. This is a government FOR the people, BY the people. Not by the select few.

That guy is a crook for sure, but so are his buddies. At his level, what he took from work is akin to you taking home a pack of post it notes, or pens and paper clips.

Not letting him off the hook, but keep it in perspective. (I think that he has a good case that WalMart was using him to work against the unions that want to bring walmart to the table for negotiations, and he was not interested in playing that game anymore, so they burned him and put him out to dry. If he has signed papers saying that neither party will pursue the other after he's gone, there is more to this than what the reporters have told you. (If the reporters even know all of the story.)

I too belive everyone that is a citizen should vote with some people being left out of the party.
Criminals should never be allowed to vote while they are serving time, or are on parole.
Child abusers ever. They should be left dickless/nutless, and have it not so tactfully explained that next time they lose the other head. The female ones should have it altered and sewn up with only a pee hole left over. :)
Illegal aliens from anywhere.

No easy way to deal with people's varried opinions, but I think that money is not evil, but many people are. Some of those evil people are rich. Some of the good people make mistakes and act like evil people, but ultimately when they get caught, good or evil, they have to pay a price for the deeds they did. (Even this guy has to be confined to his house. You might not like the punishment, but you do not know all the details of the crimes.)

I think that the even bigger problem is not the corportate bad guys, but the millions of people on the dole who are in no hurry at all to get themeselves off of it. They are more of a problem in my opinion. We can't afford to pay for them, and it breeds contempt for government, and another generation of kids brought up in welfare homes with completely warped senses of how to get where you want to go in life.

He was stealing and it's Walmarts fault? Do you read what you type??

Ohh ok..:aigo:

Then they are no longer good people.
